Now all hell's broken loose.

The Taiwanese are trying to stop
SARS from being a problem, so they've
created new problems instead. They've
got a bunch of people quarantined inside
a hospital in Taipei, and the doctors are
trying to break out.

They had their first fatality, somewhere in
Taichung, my current home.

They're banning travel to Hong Kong, and
won't issue visas to people traveling to Taiwan
from Hong Kong, China, or Toronto. I'll bet
the Canadians never thought they'd be on
anyone's shit list.

One of my students had a fever and a cough,
and when she went home sick, I told all the
other kids to go wash their hands. I did, too.

But all is well so far...
